Hostinger NAT VPS, 2.99/month. Port forwarding dies every 6-12 hours. Not in logs.

 ioping -c 100 /tmp: 99.9% okay. yabs network: 450Mbit down, 12ms to nearest. 
decent disk IO, meh network. Anyone else seeing this?

fio, iperf, geekbench. results or gtfo.

Same provider! ARM Ampere chip though, insane value otherwise. Runs circles around my old x86 box. But yeah ports drop randomly! I thought I was going crazy!

Right then, thats not ideal is it. I can tell you weve seen some iptables fun with our NAT setup, proper mess on the backend. Not my department though, Im just the forum monkey. 🦡

The graphs dont lie. I have 14 months of uptime data on Hostinger NAT. Port forwarding failures correlate with their 03:47 UTC maintenance window but they dont publish this. Status page shows 99.97% but my blackbox exporter caught 12 incidents in 30 days. Alert fatigue is real.

436 days. reboot is surrender.

We have reviewed this internally and our NAT implementation follows industry-standard practices with upstream kernel modules. Some customers may experience brief session rebalancing during routine optimization cycles. We recommend verifying your local firewall configuration first. If issues persist, open a ticket and we will escalate with our upstream. :)
